VTL7 E VE been called to task ** again for giving our personal opinion on a question at issue before the student body. This time it is relative to the item that appeared in this column Friday urging students to vote down the amendment to the constitution which concerns the eligibility for the Editorship of the Daily Trojan. It seems that because we are opposed to the amendment we should not voice our opinion and the argument used against us is that we had previously declared in this same column to handle the coming political campaign in a fair basis.
By that we meant that we would not use names of candidates running for the various offices and if the article referred to is looked over it will be found that such was the statement. The question of amending the constitution, however, does not deal with any individual, but is a matter of principal and logic. Therefore as editor of the Daily Trojan, with the backing of the staff of the paper and the editorial organizations in the University, I take this stand and urge the student body to reject the amendment when it is proposed at the next student body election.
* * •
It would please me to publish articles “pro” or “con” and invite the members of the executive committee and the student body president and iall students who are interested to give us their views. We do not desire to “railroad’’ the election through, but 'want tbe student body as a whole to decide it. Therefore both sides have an equal opportunity to voice their opinion in the Daily Trojan.
If we were to limit publicity given to amendments on questions of issue tt must bercmembcrcd then that the Trojan would be required to censor all publicity favoring thc student union plan. We do not intend to do this because of it will be remembered it was the Daily Trojan last November that started the agitation for the building and did not “let down" until committees were organised to investigate the plan.

Since this is the pivotal act, it has been necessary for the co-authors, Eddie Blaine aijd Wes Woodford, to spend much additional time in rehearsing the play so that it will be flawless and therefore deserve the high spot on the program
Eddie Blaine and Wes Woodford are said to be so sincere in their rehearsals that when they are called upon to recite in class they automatically performed a couple of archaic bows so prevalent a century or two ago. Gogo Belanger, playing opposite Eddie Blaine, was seen reaching for imaginary long dresses when she stepped upon a curb, and any person with a trace of imagination can hear the rustle of silk as Veryl Sweeny glides by.
Tickets are going rapidly, according to the committee, and they wish to warn all the students desirous of attending to purchase their pasteboards immediately, for indications point to an early sell-out.
Trojan students, whose duty it will be to finance the building, those in charge state.
The Student Union committee is composed of Hal Williamson, chairman; Gladys Lee, Frank Hadlock, Johnny Woods, Eldon Snow, and Mike Elwood. These aforementioned students and alumni have done a great deal of work in fostering the Student Union.
The following is the clause which will affect the students: The student body executive committee will place ! on th? ballot at election time an amendment to the Constitution of the Associated Student Body of the University of Southern California assessing each regular and special student
will be handled jointly by the alumni and student body. According to Mike Elwood. it will be up to the students to start the campaign and the alumni to finish it. The total cost of production will amount to approximately $400,000.
According to plans, the possible money that can be raised by students and alumni could be divided into five divisions: a student body assessment of $35,000 .alumni and faculty memberships, $20,000; surplus from athletic funds, $25,000; surplus from book store, $5,000; and donations, $5,000. This would give a total of $90,000 with which to start the building.
Donald Parkinson, architect, is now constructing plans for the structure which will be decided upon in the near future.
